VinPower CopyConnect USB 3.0

Vinpower’s popular method of transferring content from a PC to the Duplicator’s HDD is now available using USB 3.0 for faster transfer rates.

When Vinpower introduced the Copy Connection feature, which allows users to transfer content from a PC on to the Duplicator’s internal hard drive (HDD), it was seen as a tremendous time saver in the duplication process. Prior to Vinpower offering Copy Connection, users had to take extra time to burn a master disc from their PC and then take that disc and load it manually into their duplicator, before they could even produce a single copy. The Copy Connect feature eliminated those unnecessary steps and reduced the time it would take to start the duplication process.

The only delay in the Copy Connect process would be the transfer rate from the PC to the Duplicator. Now, with USB 3.0* available, that transfer time will be cut down drastically! USB 3.0 has a transfer rate of up to 5Gbit/s. With the added USB 3.0 support as an available option to any device that offers the Copy Connection feature, any size files for any format media, can be transferred in seconds.

Contact Octave Systems today to learn more about the optional USB 3.0 Copy Connection offering.

*USB 3.0 is an optional add-on. USB 2.0 will be the standard connection unless USB 3.0 is requested at the time of order.

Vinpower September Special

September Special – Free USB 2.0 with Multi-File CopyConnect with the purchase of any Vinpower SharkNet Duplicator.

With the CopyConnect feature, included as a standard feature on all Sharknet duplicators, customers can drag and drop an ISO data file from the hard drive of a computer to the hard drive of the duplicator and begin making copies, all without having to make a master disc. This is an extremely useful feature but somewhat limiting, in that the only recognized file type is an ISO 9600+Joliet formatted file. Some customers have requested a version of the CopyConnect feature that is even easier to use. In response to these requests, Vinpower Digital has introduced an enhanced version of CopyConnect, called Multi-File CopyConnect. This allows a user to drag a file folder to the hard drive of the duplicator and use this to burn discs. With the advent of this enhanced feature, users do not need to know how to make an ISO file, sometimes a difficult concept for non-technical users.

Julie Hanson from Vinpower Digital states “We have found that many purchasers of Sharknet units see value in the upgrade to Multi-File CopyConnect and will therefore work with Octave Systems to provide an exclusive promotion in September to include this update free.”

Vinpower Titan Series Now with Copy Protection

Vinpower Digital has offered DVD video copy protection for quite some time with a positive acceptance in the marketplace. (The Blu-ray version of copy protection will be introduced in the near future). Until now, this feature was solely offered in our line of manual tower duplicators or our PC enabled robotic loaders, such as the Cronus systems. Nevertheless, there has been a clamor for our extremely popular standalone TITAN series to adopt the copy protection feature due to its increased disc capacity (up to 1000 discs) and duplication capacity (up to 8 simultaneous writer drives).

We have heard the requests and redesigned the equipment’s hardware to allow for the PC connection necessary to embed the copy protection onto the media. So the TITAN Supreme 8 drive systems will be the first to launch with the capability to add the copy protection feature.

Vinpower USB Flash Drive Duplicators

We’ve all seen these handy little devices that plug into the USB ports on our computers and allow us to carry around a tremendous amount of data. The current size leader is the Kingston DataTravler 300, boasting a massive 256 GB of data in the palm of your hand. This is equivalent to carrying around one of the following:

365 CD’s (700 MB each)
54 DVD’s (4.7 GB each)
10 Blu-ray’s (25 GB each)

The majority of these units are actually in the 4 GB to 8 GB range. Which is much larger than the $100 1 GB hard drive I bought 20 years ago. I wouldn’t have been carrying that around in the palm of my hand because there wouldn’t have been anything convenient to plug it into, to extract or share the data. Plus, one static shock or a strong magnet could wipe out all my data.

More and more Octave is receiving calls and inquires regarding the Vinpower flash duplicators. We have flash duplicators ranging in size from 3-targets to 63-targets. The Vinpower USBShark units have many desirable features such as asynchronous copy mode and an encrypted erase function. The other day a wedding photographer asked me if this was the next wave for picture sharing. I’m not certain but now that USB ports are becoming a standard feature in cars and the fact that many of us carry these devices on our key chains, I’d have to say USB might just be the next big wave of the future.
